United States v. Timothy W. Markling

How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• concluding that officers must announce their presence and wait for a brief period before attempting entry
• holding that there was constructive denial of entry when “the officers waited seven seconds before starting to try to knock the door down”
• stating that the proper inquiry was whether the illegally obtained evidence “affected the magistrate's decision to issue the search warrant” which led to a valid second search
• requiring that a conditional plea must “precisely identify which pretrial issues the defendant wishes to preserve for review”
• noting that two doctrines are “closely related” but “not the same”
• finding that, although no written plea agreement was included in the record, a letter from the government memorializing the conditional nature of the plea was sufficient to preserve defen- dant's right to appeal suppression ruling
